-This document describes the naming convention for the various kinds
-of DSOs (Dynamic Shared Objects).
-
-NOTE: Files of the format xxxx.la are libtool files that describe the
-actual DSO. The DSO itself is usually named xxxx.so or libxxxx.so.
-Some platforms require that the name of a DSO starts with "lib". On
-those platforms xxxx.la and libxxxx.la both generate DSOs with the
-same name "libxxxx.so". Since this leads to problems you should never
-use both "xxxx.la" and "libxxxx.la" as names for DSOs!!
-
-*** Since <appname>.la is reserved for KDEInit loadable modules, it is
-*** strongly recommended NEVER to use lib<appname>.la as the name of a
-*** library.
